Over the past few years’ enormous trend for novelty accessories, bags have been made in the image of a lot of things: books, decks of playing cards, astrological symbols, leather jackets. Rarely do any of these bags also perform any of the functions of their aesthetic inspirations; after all, bags have a pretty specific functional purpose already, and their interior hollowness presents another significant barrier. Neither of those issues got in Dolce & Gabbana’s way, though, and soon you can buy a bag that’s also a boombox, should that be a thing that’s useful to you.

For whatever this bag will surely cost when it’s eventually available, it really should connect to your phone via Bluetooth (lots of cheap portable speakers do that!), but instead, you can hook your iPhone up via aux cord and this purse will actually play whatever you choose. On the bright side, that means you don’t have to get your phone and the bag to pair, which I am never very good at.

Alessandra Ambrosio has done a lot of repping for Tod's in recent months. She was very fond of the Tod's Wave Bag, and here she is shopping in LA with a new Tod's mini.

Queen Bey was recently spotted out with her mom Tina Knowles and this suede MYSTERY backpack in NYC. Tell us what this is, hive mind! I can't stand the intrigue.

the Coach x High Line Summer Party in NYC. She's carrying a special Coach Rogue Bag that features Felix the Cat, the wonderful, wonderful cat. (That's part of his theme song, btw.) This bag made its debut in Coach's Resort 2017 collection.

Here's David Beckham, hauling his oversized Louis Vuitton Keepall around Paris. David just so happens to be in town for the Louis Vuitton Spring 2017 men's collection show. Quelle surprise!

Hailey Baldwin also attended that NYC Coach party, and she brought along a studded orange leather version of the Rogue. Her dress is also Coach.

Here's a stunning candid shot of Heidi Klum in NYC. She's carrying a bag we haven't seen before, a tropical patterned Saint Laurent Helena Mini Bucket Bag. Thus, the Bucket Bag lives on to see another summer, and possibly fall.

Many words come to mind when I think of Kate Moss, but "cartoon" isn't one of them. Nonetheless, Kate carried this cute little Disney x Coach collab clutch to a Rimmel London event in London.

Made with the softest Italian leather, the mini Rosalia is a great city bag (or yacht charter companion) with three compartments and a mirror pouch to organise your cards, spare change and makeup essentials. Nautical fashion never goes out of style, so you can put this one in the ‘investment’ category.

The little blue box is one of the most iconic images in the entire world of style, and the color of Tiffany blue is even more recognizable. The brand may be known by all for its jewelry, but once you take a look at Tiffany leather goods, it might seriously broaden your perception of the beautiful things the brand is capable of creating.

TIFFANY SUTTON CLUTCH,

For Fall 2014, Tiffany’s newest handbags have my heart. Just like the jewelry, the Tiffany leather collection focuses on the beauty of the materials and shapes. Smooth calf, suede and textured leather in elegant, neutral hues make up the collection. The styles span the handbag spectrum, including a satchel, tote, fold-over clutch, handled clutch and a bucket bag in two sizes.

TIFFANY OLIVIA TOTE,

TIFFANY SUTTON CLUTCH,

The entire Tiffany & Co. Leather Collection for Fall 2014 revolves around Italian artisanship and smooth integration, which are things I can always get behind. I had the opportunity to see an assortment of the bags in person, and after that, I was hooked. I was drawn to the large bucket, which is a simple-yet-striking design with some of the supplest leather ever; the top handle clutch will be the perfect addition to any accessory collection, as well. I’m a sucker for the perfect shade of cobalt blue, and Tiffany nails it this season.

TIFFANY BLAIR SHOULDER BAG.

TIFFANY PEYTON SATCHEL,

If you only think of Tiffany & Co. as a jewelry brand, it’s time for a change. I’ve been in love with Tiffany since I was young, and now that the company makes some stunning bags, I had to share this collection with you while we gear up for National Handbag Day. Shop the collection via Tiffany online.

Traditionally, Dolce & Gabbana is not a go-to source of ultra-formal, ultra-expensive clutches; the brand has generally focused on day bags in the past, with a few evening options here and there. The Dolce woman is one with a lot of events to attend, though, and now the brand is turning out party bags to go along with its party clothes.

The line, centered on the frame-top Vanda Clutch, is ultra-embellished, incredibly detailed and just as expensive as those descriptors often indicate. Right now, prices top out at seven grand for a lattice version covered in enamel flowers, and the piece actually feels special enough to command that price tag. That's no easy feat, but if you don't believe me, check out the evidence below.

Dolce & Gabbana and Net-a-Porter team up for yet another exclusive range called the ‘Sunshine Collection’. The colorful line embraces bold floral prints with red tulips perfect for the warm weather months. From halter neck dresses to wedge sandals to dreamy gowns, there are plenty of feminine styles to wear this summer. Take a look at some of our favorite pieces below and shop more on Net-a-Porter.com.
